Want a side of eggs with that ham?: Rebecca hams it up on the silver screen

Last month my dear friend, colleague, and fidus Achates Letizia–proprietor of Alla Madonna del Piatto Country Inn and Cooking School–asked me to guest star in one of her cooking videos which she periodically posts on her blog.

Despite having about the same on-camera charisma as Al Gore, I had a grand time fooling around in Letizia’s fabulous kitchen and we spent the morning cracking each other up (and Letizia spent a month editing out all the cracking up to come up with a half-way professional five minutes)!

Enjoy. Oh, and by the way, the old adage about the camera adding 10 pounds is totally not true. It adds 25.

You’re a natural! You should have your own cooking show. Although I would never make a dish with mushrooms, “in fatto” I could make the farrotto with other vegetables. It sounds delicious! I especially liked your tips for passing the time while stirring. I usually try to read a book when I have to stand over the stove.
